"Of course she likes me!"
Shi Jin said firmly. Qinbei Pavilion
"Really? Did you reveal your identity?"
Sun Lei looked at Shi Jin and asked, Shi Jin is now in trouble, and the identity of this thief is obvious.
"Brother, don't worry. My younger brother naturally doesn't dare to reveal the secrets of Liangshan. My younger brother only said that he is from a landlord's family in Guanzhong and came to Dongping Mansion with his elders to do business."
Shi Jin quickly said that going down the mountain privately was a serious crime. If he was leaking the secrets of Liangshan, it would be an unforgivable crime.
"You haven't told her your identity, how do you know she will be willing to go up the mountain with you?"
Sun Lei did not dwell on the confidentiality issue, but continued to ask Shi Jin about love. How could he know that the other party would accept it without even showing his identity?
"Brother, this... I don't dare!"
Shi Jin hesitated and shook his head. It wasn't that he didn't have the courage to tell Li Ruilan, but he didn't dare to reveal Liangshan's affairs.
"Why don't you dare? If you like her, then of course you have to tell her the truth. Why do you always stay in a brothel like this? Do you want to be the second best doctor An?"
Sun Lei looked at Shi Jin and said.
"This...little brother knows."
Shi Jin nodded.
"You can figure it out yourself. We'll wait for you at the inn at the end of the street."
Sun Lei stood up and put down a bag of gold and silver and said, "If you want to take away Dongping Mansion's head of business, money is indispensable. Shi Jin stayed in this brothel for ten days, and he must have spent almost all his money."
"elder brother!"
Shi Jin was moved and ashamed at the same time, and wanted to ask him to stay. After all, he had done something wrong, but when he thought that this was a brothel, he felt embarrassed to ask her to stay.
"Resolve it as soon as possible. My brother has a special status and cannot stay in Dongping Mansion for a long time."
Sun An patted Shi Jin on the shoulder and said something.
"My little brother knows!"
Shi Jin nodded heavily, he understood this truth.
Sun Lei led the people out of the brothel and was not in a hurry to go to the inn. Instead, he wandered around the city with his entourage like a rich man.
Dongping Mansion is quite lively, and there are government officers patrolling the streets from time to time. Coupled with the garrison on the city wall, it can be considered that the defense is tight.
"Who would have thought that the wanted criminal was in the city?"
Sun Lei pointed at the wanted notice posted on the wall and admired it. Liangshan's wanted notice was plastered all over the wall, and his portrait was at the front, dominating the list. Moreover, he also wrote the words "bounty 100,000 guan" in red pen. Very eye-catching.
"The painter's skills are pretty good. Are you meeting me now?"
Sun Lei touched his chin and looked at his portrait. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.
"Brother, this painting should be by a woman. This woman has considerable attainments in painting."
Wen Huanzhang saw Sun Lei nodding his head while looking at the portrait, so he spoke.
"A woman's hand?"
Sun Lei was puzzled for a while, and after taking a closer look, he realized that his portrait had a soft air, which should have been a heroic spirit. He was not a sissy.
"Brother, please take a look. Most of the portraits of the other brothers are resolute and rough. This is the brushwork commonly used by government painters. However, the brushwork of my brother's portrait is delicate, revealing a kind of feminine delicacy. Although she has tried her best to hide it, trying to paint various heroes and warriors. It’s heroic, but there are differences between men’s and women’s writing skills after all.”
Wen Huanzhang introduced with a smile.
"It's true, the brothers are all murderous, forget about Li Kui, Lin Chong and Wu Song are not so rough and arrogant, my painting style is obviously different."
After Sun Lei carefully looked at it, he suddenly realized that not only was the style of painting different, but even the strokes were obviously different. The other people's portraits were casual, the strokes were heavy, and the lines were thick. However, the lines in his portrait were delicate and the brushes were obviously high-end. few.
"Is it possible that Cheng Wanli specially hired a painter to paint his brother's face?"
Du Bo said, after Wen Huanzhang said this, they also discovered that there was something wrong with the portrait and became a little alert. If the government wanted to focus on dealing with Sun Lei, then they had to take precautions early.
"Do you think so highly of me?"
Sun Lei looked flattered and joked.
"No, there is still some difference between the appearance of this painting and my brother's. This painting is from the hand of a woman. The painting seems to be feminine and delicate, very much like the Binbin scholar that women like. It is too weak and can easily mislead people. And My brother has more heroic spirit. If the government wants to deal with my brother, it should hire a superb painter, and then this portrait will be eighty-nine times similar to my brother."
Wen Huanzhang shook his head and said, it is impossible for the government to allow female painters to draw wanted posters. This is also against the rules. Almost no officials or officials are women.
"What's the meaning?"
Sun An couldn't understand, looked at Wen Huanzhang and asked.
"Haha, what do you mean by a woman painting a portrait of her brother?"
Wen Huanzhang said with a smile.
"Ha ha!"
Everyone also laughed. A woman was holding a paintbrush in her boudoir, painting a portrait of Sun Lei with a loving smile on her face. There was no need to explain clearly what she meant.
The laughter of the crowd attracted a group of soldiers looking for the city.
"Who are you, you dare to laugh in the official place!"
A guy who looked like an officer led people forward and looked at Sun Lei and scolded them.
"A few of us wanted to see the bounty for wanted criminals, but we didn't expect that there was a reward worth 100,000 yuan. Can I uncover this wanted order?"
Sun Lei smiled and pointed at his portrait. At this time, Sun Lei had already dressed up and looked like a rich playboy.
"Hmph, I don't know whether to live or die, do you know who these people are?"
The officer glanced at Sun Lei and said disdainfully.
"What a hero from Liangshan!"
Sun Lei blurted out.
"Nonsense! These are Liangshan thieves! Every one of them is a demon who kills without batting an eye and eats people without spitting out their bones!"
The officer glared at Sun Lei, a playboy who didn't know whether to live or die.
"Is he so awesome! I think this guy looks good, with oily hair and a pink face. Could he be a thief? He looks like an opera singer on stage!"
Sun Lei pointed at his portrait with a smile and asked about the doubts in his heart. He was very curious about who painted him as a handsome and feminine young man.
"Um...you don't have to worry about these!"
The officer looked at Sun Lei's portrait and obviously knew something, but he was unwilling to say anything and directly drove Sun Lei away.
"I'm just curious!"
Sun Lei took a step forward with a smile and secretly stuffed a piece of silver into his hand.
The officer looked at the ingot of silver in his hand, quickly stuffed it into his arms, and then pretended that nothing had happened. He was so fast that the soldiers behind him didn't even see it clearly.
"This was painted by the magistrate's daughter. The magistrate saw that he looked more like a thief, so he used it. In fact, it was of no use. Sun Lei was nicknamed the Monkey King. Even the emperor was not afraid of him. How could he be afraid of the state capital? Just stick to it and do it. For show, who dares to go to Liangshanbo to seek death..."
The officer collected the money and immediately told everything he knew. He said everything at once.
"I see!"
Sun Lei suddenly realized.
"I advise you to stay where you can, and stay away from provoking Liangshan Bo. No one will care if you lose your life in vain!"
After the officer collected the money, his attitude toward Sun Lei became much better. He gave the dandy in front of him a few words and left.
"My brother is the only one in the world who dares to talk to the officers and soldiers about his wanted notice."
Du Bo said with a smile.
"Haha, it's all money!"
Sun Lei smiled and left with a few people.
